this is making the case that israel's interests come first. that is something that will cause real concern and anxiety, confronting iran, across this region. what does real peace with the palestinians mean? there is much skepticism across the middle east, even israel as well, about whether he wants to pursue a two-state solution. >> there was a higher than expected turnout, which could also shake up the coalition. >> interesting, indeed. israelis show little interest in the election campaign. they said the issues were not really discussed. there were new celebrities on the scene and they were getting tired of new celebrities coming and dominating politics. why would you discuss peace when they have been talking about peace for more than a decade, they would say, and nothing has been done? but the realization really stuck in that israeli elections do matter. they decided that they better get out because this is an election system where every vote counts. you have seen some real surprises. aboute already talking another election. >> think of tha

israel's election. driving to the heart of a sensitive but still stagnant process of peacemaking with the palace. today is a day for israelis to make a choice about their next leaders. no political party has ever gained a majority in israeli elections. so there's expected to be a lot of postturing about what type of government there will be for israel over the next four years. my colleague looks at what is on the ballot box today. >> israel's prime minister, benjamin netanyahu was cheery this morning as he arrives to vote. by the end of the day he will likely have something more to be chief about. the leader of the party is expected to come out on top and keep his job. but at jerusalem's main market the lack of suspense means there's little fever. they talk about israel being divided and disillusioned. most take it as a give than benjamin netanyahu will remain in office. >> if you ask me, nothing. no b.b., no nothing. >> security, never far from the minds of israelis is what many see as netanyahu's stre
